Churn prediction in telecoms via data mining approach: A case
... backward, forward and stepwise. In our example, we selected stepwise. Below is an example of the outcomes as produced with SAS EM. We can observe that the two most discriminant variables are the same as those identified with decision tree approach: ratio_SOI_SOR and ratio_peak_offpeak. ...

What Is R-squared?
... R-squared is a handy, seemingly intuitive measure of how well your linear model fits a set of observations. However, as we saw, R-squared doesn’t tell us the entire story. You should evaluate R-squared values in conjunction with residual plots, other model statistics, and subject area knowledge in o ...

Otherwise, we risk making decisions that rely on data we should not rely upon or doubting data that we think might be uncertain when it is not. This can obviously ...
